    Ulterra trim motor replacement...DIY?

    How difficult is it to replace trim motor on the ulterra, bought a used unit and it needs new trim motor due to water getting into gears from poor gasket design

    FYI if you buy a trim module and install it and it does not work, they will not warranty the part because it was not installed by a minn kota service rep. I just went through this and had to end up paying for 2 modules and labor to get my Ulterra back on the water. It is not hard to change out, but just wanted to give you a heads up.

    Jim is right. Trim modules are tricky.
    what is your troll motor doing to warrant the change out of the trim module?
